Chorus 1
You gotta be hot or cold!
Hot or cold!
You better be hot or cold!
Hot or cold!

Verse 1 [Rap]
I know thy works that thou art neither c-c-cold nor hot.
I would that thou wert cold or hot, hot, hot.
So then because thou art lukewarm and neither cold nor hot,
I will spew thee out of My mouth,
Spew thee out of My mouth!

Chorus 2
You'd better be hot or cold!
Hot or cold!
You gotta be hot or cold!
Hot or cold!

Bridge
Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do,
Do it with all thy might.
Whatsoever you put your heart into,
Do it [do it] with all you got,
Do it, mmmm, with your best shot.

Chorus 3
Hot or cold!
Hot or cold!
You better be hot or cold!
Hot or cold!

Verse 3 [Rap]
To be lukewarm, that just ain't cool
And if you're cold like ice, you're just a fool.
So make a vacuum, and for the fire yearn,
And the world will come out to see you burn!

Chorus 4
Hot or cold!
You better be hot or cold!
Listen to me, brother! Hot or cold!
Hot or cold!
Hot or cold!

Chorus 5
You better be hot not cold!
[Make your choice and take your stand, no in-between or maybe.]
Hot not cold!
Gonna be hot not cold!
[Live or die, sink or swim, life just can't be hazy!]
Hot not cold!
[Give your all or none at all, quit just being lazy!]
You better be hot!
